Jekyll Island Progress Report 2021

Progress Report J E K Y L L I S L A N D • 2 02 1

“All Georgians should be proud of what’s been achieved over the past year on this remarkable island.”

STATE OF GEORGIA OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR

ATLANTA 30334-0900

Greetings: The natural blessings that have attracted visitors to Jekyll Island for generations — open beaches, pristine landscapes, and an abundance of outdoor activities — continued to be vitally important to Georgians in 2021. Ensuring that the island remained an inviting and safe place was the primary objective of the Jekyll Island Authority. The resourcefulness and dedication applied to this effort have not just maintained Jekyll’s unmatched appeal, they also elevated the entire coastal region as a desirable destination.

Early in the pandemic it became clear that keeping coastal communities like Jekyll Island as open and accessible as possible was imperative. More than ever, people needed the mental and physical health benefits that come from spending time in its relaxing spaces. The Jekyll Island Authority enthusiastically adopted the Georgia Safety Promise, which was designed to instill consumer confidence, empower businesses to take critical steps to help protect people during COVID-19, and keep Georgia open for business.

But they didn’t stop there. The dedicated staff developed creative and new ways to keep visitors, residents, employees, and business partners healthy and safe. By continuously reviewing and optimizing policies and practices, the Authority has weathered a time of historic difficulties and emerged ready to meet future challenges.

Thanks to our joint efforts and sustained partnership, Jekyll Island remains not only a premier destination, but has also provided an example of Georgia’s effective response to this public health crisis, which also protected our state’s growing economy. Our measured approach used sensible strategies for improving public health and mitigated financial pressures on our state’s employers and households.

Last year I predicted that Jekyll Island would be a driving force in the recovery of coastal tourism in 2021, and I am pleased to report it has exceeded expectations. Jekyll has become even more accessible to those who need respite and recreation while increasing its support of local and regional businesses as well as the larger economy of our state.

All Georgians should be proud of what’s been achieved over the past year on this remarkable island.

Sincerely,

Governor Brian P. Kemp 1

JEKYLL ISLAND AUTHORITY BOARD OF DIRECTORS When I started my term as Chairman of the Jekyll Island Authority in 2019, there was no way I could have foreseen what we would face beginning in the early months of 2020. I did anticipate, however, that Jekyll Island Authority staff members could meet almost any challenge. In fact, their work has exceeded my expectations and my admiration of them, which was already considerable, has only increased.

Individually and as a team, they ensured that Jekyll Island remained a beautiful and restorative place for relaxation, contemplation, and healthful activities — all of which have proved to be so important to physical and mental well-being. Their resourcefulness, ingenuity, and dedication provided much-needed continuity and comfort to the people they serve.

As we continue to contend with the effects of the pandemic, they are making remarkable progress despite all the problems they have encountered. Even as we entered the 2021 holiday season, which was both joyous and marked by new uncertainty and worries, they never wavered in their determination to provide families with wonderful experiences and treasured memories of Jekyll Island. It’s difficult to imagine a more important gift during trying times, and I cannot thank them enough.

The last two years have tested our understanding of how to manage and protect a desirable destination amid unprecedented circumstances. Yet JIA employees have succeeded in ways that continue to make us proud. The impressive amount of visitation we hosted during 2021 is a testament to the JIA staff’s professionalism and commitment.

I am grateful to them and can only look forward to what they continue to do for Jekyll Island in the year to come.

JEKYLL ISLAND AUTHORITY BOARD OF DIRECTORS At the conclusion of each year, I enjoy sharing news about projects that have improved experiences for our visitors and enhanced the quality of life for our residents. This year is no exception, as you’ll see in the following pages. These achievements are a direct result of our goals laid out in our previous 2014 Master Plan, which guided our revitalization efforts by providing a vision for Jekyll Island and determining best practices for implementation.

In 2021 we marked another significant milestone, which will yield benefits for years to come: The completion of the Jekyll Island Authority’s 2021 Master Plan Update. As with its predecessor, stakeholders and the public were actively involved in planning for the island’s future. However, the update represents a significant shift in focus. Now that we have completed most of the objectives recommended in the 2014 plan, our mission going forward is management of capacity – venues, operations, traffic, and visitation – to ensure Jekyll’s natural character is retained.

The primary goal of our capacity management plan is to protect Jekyll Island’s irreplaceable natural resources. The thorough and thoughtful process that produced the 2021 Master Plan Update has identified powerful tools that keep conservation of our vibrant coastal ecosystems at the center of our work, while at the same time preventing the island from becoming a “disappointing destination.” For example, the plan includes strategies for precisely managing transportation, events, and amenities to ensure that the island never feels crowded or overwhelming. As a result, we’ll continue providing engaging and authentic encounters with Jekyll Island that our guests have come to expect.

I look forward to reporting on the progress of our efforts next year and seeing many of our new projects begin to take shape.

Jekyll Island has earned international acclaim for its vibrant coastal landscapes, wide open spaces, and inviting amenities.

Meeting the elevated expectations of residents and visitors requires constant evaluation and careful implementation. This means getting the details exactly right, so that every venue and destination on the island is safe, appealing, and accessible today and in the future.

COURTYARD & RESIDENCE INN BY MARRIOTT The 209-room oceanfront Courtyard & Residence Inn by Marriott opened to visitors June 2021, providing additional lodging options for the island’s continued traveler demand. The new property expands the island’s family, extended stay, and business travel lodging options and provides two additional hotel experiences under one roof.

The dual-branded Marriott is the site of four former hotel properties dating back to the 1960’s and welcomes additional dining options and the island’s largest heated pool.

The new hotel embodies the Jekyll Island Authority’s goals of repurposing previously developed land within a similar footprint and remaining committed to conservation and stewardship of the island’s delicate balance.

THE MOORINGS AT JEKYLL HARBOR A new 48-unit condominium and townhome development located adjacent to Jekyll Harbor Marina welcomed its first residents to Jekyll Island in late 2021, with additional development phases slated to finish in 2022. The units sit on a parcel of land overlooking the Jekyll River that had been previously allotted for development decades ago.

With very limited residential offerings on Jekyll Island, The Moorings provides another housing opportunity for those looking to call Jekyll Island home. The new development experienced extensive demand, with all units sold prior to construction completion.

ISLAND-WIDE HOLLY JOLLY JEKYLL With a goal of continuously enhancing the holiday season, the Jekyll Island Authority Roads and Grounds department designed new light displays at an estimated $50,000 savings in 2021. Utilizing rain days that prevented other work assignments from being completed, staff constructed a variety of more than 200 hanging and grounded displays from rebar and bulk rope light. These new displays created efficiencies in labor installation and a unique visual impact for visitors. Facilities staff were then able to dedicate additional time to lighting historic structures, including Faith Chapel, that had not been previously lit. These enhancements provided a more complete loop of more than one million holiday lights to experience around the island.

projects

Every new project or amenity improvement undertaken on Jekyll island is preceded by detailed planning and distinguished by precise execution. This approach is essential to the Jekyll Island Authority’s role as stewards of the delicate balance between nature and humankind. The 2021 Jekyll Island Master Plan Update will guide us as we continue with this critical mission.

14

PUBLIC SAFETY COMPLEX Through capital project funding, the Jekyll Island Authority moved forward in 2021 on the architectural and engineering design phases for a new Public Safety Complex with the continued goal of securing additional funding to begin construction. The facility would merge the Jekyll Island Fire Department and EMS with Georgia State Patrol Post 35 to place both services together. To decrease response times, the new complex would be located within 1.5 miles of most of the island’s day-to-day commercial operations. The future facility would also become a satellite Emergency Operations Center for local response and supporting GEMA and Glynn County, as needed. The new public safety complex is also designed to accommodate a ladder truck for essential operations, pursuing future improvement in the public safety ISO rating and a decrease in insurance premiums for NOTE: RENDERED PERSPECTIVE IMAGE SHOWN ON SHEET CS-1.01 IS residents and businesses on the island.

The Jekyll Island Foundation (JIF) is thankful for every success of 2021 and appreciates the many contributions and efforts of the JIF Board members, our twelve inaugural corporate sponsors, investors, and each individual member. The Foundation used donations to support a variety of initiatives—all directly related to the purposes of the organization: conservation, preservation, and education.

Foundation projects in 2021 included the purchase of a UTV and PIT tag readers, enabling more efficient turtle nest monitoring by the Georgia Sea Turtle Center; blood chemistry-based health monitoring for eastern diamondback rattlesnakes; the completion of a one-year Georgia Sea Grant graduate fellowship study collecting and analyzing data on Jekyll shorebirds and in partnership with Jekyll Island Authority, Georgia Audubon, and Georgia Sea Grant; freshwater turtle population ecology research; the installation of native trees, grasses, and shrubs to beautify Captain Wylly Pond and create wildlife habitats; and the retiling and restoration of the historic Chicota Cottage courtyard, featuring some of the original quarry tiles. We look forward to new opportunities in 2022.
